I am having trouble. My lawn mower, a case 220, seems to have a short. I keep going through batteries, but on the side of the mower there is a warning label that on tractors equipped with alternators... Does my lawn tractor have an alternator??? If it does, where should I start looking for a replacement as when the battery is fully charged, it does not last as long as the battery in my John Deere. Also the starter solenoid seems to be heading the way of the dodo, where can I get one of those? I just got the tractor over the winter and not real familiar with Case models. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it has an alternator its under the flywheel, and pretty bullet proof. Regulators on the other hand are prone to failure if a ground wire is not attached directly to the regulator mounting bolt and battery ground terminal. Positive wire on regulator should be hooked to the same terminal as the coil wire on the ignition switch, this keeps it from draining the battery when its not running. Solenoid problems can usually be traced to the travel contol lever, this lever provides ground for the solenoid, and is mounted in plastic bushings. (not the hot setup) I usually add a ground wire to the lever. Under the regulator cover fasten a wire to the lever with an avation hose clamp and ground under one of the regulator cover bolts. Get your parts from your local Ingersoll dealer as John said.

When I had my Case/Ingersoll's the one thing I had the most problems with was the starter selenoid. The only place I ever found one was at the dealer. Try www.ingersoll-inc.com for the nearest dealer or parts. Use a good battery, the biggest garden tractor battery available. The cheap ones just don't last. If you have a meter measure the volts coming from the flywheel to the little box (on all mine it was below the steering column in a little panel you had to take one bolt out of) and see what you have coming to it it. Should be at least 13. Had one that I had to replace the box cause it barely had 11 out of it. Replaced it and no problems. If its in the front no help here. Never had any other problems electrical except for a set of points.

Thanks.
